NAME
s.what - Allows the user to query site list descriptions.
(GRASS Sites Program)
SYNOPSIS
s.what
s.what help
s.what [-q] map=name[,name,...]
[east_north=east,north[,east,north,...]
DESCRIPTION
s.what outputs the category values and (optionally) the category
labels associated with user-specified locations on sites input map(s).
Locations are specified as geographic x,y coordinate pairs (i.e., pair of
eastings and northings).
OPTIONS
Flags:
- -q
- Load quietly
Parameters:
- map=
- The name(s) of one or more existing sites map layers to be queried.
- east_north=
- One or multiple coordinate pairs for query
EXAMPLES
The contents of the ASCII inputfile to s.what can be typed in at the keyboard, redirected from a file, or piped from another program (like d.where). Each line of the input consists of an easting, a northing, and an optional label, which are separated by spaces. The word end
is typed to end input of coordinates to s.what. For example:
-
- 635342.21 7654321.09 site 1
- 653324.88 7563412.42 site 2
- end
s.what output consists of the input geographic location and label, and, for each user-named sites map layer, the category value.
Sample input (in regular font) to and output (in plain text) from s.what are given below.
-
- s.what map=soils,aspect
- 635342.21 7654321.09 site 1
- 653324.88 7563412.42 site 2
- end
-
- sites in mapset 635342.21|7654321.09|site 1|45|21
- sites in mapset 653324.88|7563412.42|site 2|44|20
NOTES
The maximum number of sites map layers that can be queried at one time is 14.
